If you find yourself in Old San Juan, skip all the tourist traps filled with junk made in China and…read moretake a stroll through PR Arts & Crafts. They have beautiful art and crafts from local artisans - from jewelry to paintings to photographs to ceramic and more. Everything is so unique and special; nothing mass produced. There were several pieces I wanted to buy, but I settled on a small painting and a large framed photo. The only problem is the photo in the frame was too big to take on the plane back home. The store could not take the photograph out of the professional framing, but they took my information and reached out to the artist to see if she could bring in a copy of the photograph without a frame. They called me back a couple of weeks later, the artist had brought in the photo and they were happy to ship to me. I have never had such wonderful service from a store where they went out of their way to make a customer happy. 10/10 definitely would recommend for unique finds, great customer service, and to support local artists.

If you're looking for something unique to take home or to gift to your friends and family at home, this is the spot.

We love art (and we were in dire need of air condition). We walked in and were greeted and then directed through the exhibition , and ended up in a lovely little gift shop. The exhibition was so beautiful, and very moving. We loved it, and ended up buying a canvas print for our home. There was lots to see in the gift shop, related to both the exhibit and unrelated. We were then invited back to open mic the following evening. I would have enjoyed that, but we were leaving town that day. Anyway, if you like art, when exploring Old San Juan, I recommend checking out the Poet's Passage.

Although the pork was a bit dry, the avocado and chocolate sauce rounded it out. Got a ham and egg burrito for my sons and they both enjoyed splitting it. Was VERY large. Wife enjoyed her Puerto Rican Bowl a lot. I personally thought the pork, again was dry, but she didn't seem to mind. Ended it with a lava cake. We ordered it after eating everything and it took A LONG time. Granted, that just means it's fresh. Just didn't expect it to take 20+ minutes. So PRO TIP: Don't order it after eating. Order it early.

The chocolate ketchup was surprisingly decent, but I wasn't standing up yelling, "GET THE SCIENTIST!". Somebody put chocolate in ketchup and I handled it pretty well. Also got an Old Fashioned with chocolate dripped around it. It was fine. The atmosphere was hectic. I went alone, so I was just sitting there holding my little chocolate whiskey while everybody else had people who knew where they were. Couldn't eat upstairs either. I really wanted to. Don't know whats up there. Writing this out, I realize "this place won me over" might be generous. We reached a ceasefire. I'd give it 3.5 stars, rounding to 4 because I ordered the most basic thing available and can't make that everybody's problem. Might come back next time I'm in San Juan and actually participate in the concept.

This keepsake shop is located in Old San Juan and a great place even for a look.

They are best known for their decorative tile replicas of homes in the city that can be personalized to your liking. We spend a lot of time looking at all of the options - they have a wide variety of sizes, styles, and colors. We opted for a larger 2-story piece which was more pricy, in the $70 range, but felt it was the perfect piece to commemorate our trip and a transition to a new home together. The woman at the counter was very friendly and directed us to their sister shop just across the street to get the personalization done free of charge. That process only took a few minutes, and we are so happy to have this beautiful piece in our home!
